Many Ars readers love to argue the details of different computer architectures. Cache implementations, pipelines, and other minutiae are all put under the microscope and declared wanting by someone ...

Corning is opening three new advanced manufacturing plants in the U.S. dedicated entirely to optical technologies for Nvidia.

In context: Quantum computers are all about qubits, the basic units that operate according to the principles of quantum mechanics instead of the zeros and ones of today's computers. They promise ...

Optical fibers transmit information at the speed of light over thousands of kilometers. These properties have enabled their ...

The secret to building superconducting quantum computers with massive processing power may be an ordinary telecommunications technology - optical fiber. Physicists have measured and controlled a ...

Imagine heading out for a run on a cold winter day clad in athletic gear with sensors and microelectronics woven into the very fiber to constantly monitor your vital signs, even running the occasional ...

Bridging the gap between the cryogenically-cooled inner workings of quantum computers and the conventional electronics that control them is an outstanding challenge. Current approaches look unlikely ...

Not really. Despite their reputation for being more secure than standard wiring or airwaves, the truth is that fiber cabling is just as vulnerable to technical hacks using easily obtained commercial ...

It seems graphene, the single layer of carbon atoms that can supercharge computer chips, optical circuits, lithium-ion batteries, and solar power generation, might have a competitor: a rare earth ...
